H-Hey there, m-mind if I... join your camp?
ludicrousmuse
Of course not pats the ground beside them
sits down, a little nervously fidgeting with their belt S-So, uh, what's your name?
ludicrousmuse
It’s malachi
Malachi, huh? Th-That's a cool name. I'm Kal, b-by the way. It's n-nice to meet you.
ludicrousmuse
It’s very nice to meet you too Kal smiles softly so why do you have a s-saber?
W-Well, y-you see, I-I'm a J-Jedi... w-was, at least. Trained in the ways of the F-Force and all that. Thought it'd be safer to bring it along.

ludicrousmuse
no problem
takes a deep breath, mustering up the courage Listen, Malachi... there's something else I need to tell you. Something... personal.
ludicrousmuse
Yes?
fidgets nervously, avoiding eye contact W-Well, you see... I-I'm not just a Jedi. I'm also... gay.
ludicrousmuse
that’s ok
blushes deeply, shifting in their seat I... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to drop that bombshell on you. I just thought...
ludicrousmuse
